    Does anyone have old pictures of Tony Bruskivage's creation 52 Lincoln convertible. "The Pearl" I owed this car few years back and heard it was in a few old Custom car magazines and early 60s shows. I wrote a thread yesterday on how I bought it, but no responces. I gues it was too wordy. Pictured is how it looked when I had it in the rough. Anybody know where it is now? Last I seen it was in Broomall ,PA

    Thank you very much Rikster for the old pics of the Lincoln. That must have been the 1st version of it with the Buick ports on the side scoops. They added side fins to the rear later. I've seen later pics with other changes like a rear landau roof and a glitter white paint job. The grill was different when I had it. It was like a 58 thunderbird mesh in the mouth. I'll get in touch with Luke. Anyone else with pictures ,Post'em.
    Thanks

    How come the front of that car reminds me of Hellboy?
